Rancher Writer Sample Outline

This is an example outline for a Rancher article. The main bullet points represent the sections the author thinks might work well within the article. The nested sub-items represent sub-sections and descriptions of what each section will cover. Providing a detailed outline and project scope helps the content team offer feedback early and helps ensure that everyone is aligned on expectations. An outline does not necessarily have to reflect the final form of the article, but it should have provide enough details and structure for us evaluate your ideas.
